in News

The big chart news of the week in the USA is the number of Chris Cornell projects that have launched back onto the charts in the wake of the singer’s death.

Chris Cornell fans have revisited all of Cornell’s bands and solo works as a show of mourning for the late singer whose death appears to be caused by the effects of prescription medication.

Between solo work, Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog, Cornell has five albums in the top 200:

Superunknown – Soundgarden (#32)
Audioslave – Audioslave (#54)
Badmotorfinger – Soundgarden (#110)
Temple of the Dog – Temple of the Dog (#136)
Scrapbook – Chris Cornell (#183)

A memorial for Chris Cornell will be held in Los Angeles on Friday. Cornell was cremated at a private family gathering on Tuesday.

Rising Festival, Beth Gibbons, Hamer Hall 1st June 2025 #REVIEW

The blue-coloured- light drenched the stage, signifying the trademark colour of Rising. Beth Gibbons is here as part of Rising festival to showcase her solo album, Lives Outgrown, with a seven- piece band of musicians. Gibbons last toured Melbourne 15 years ago with proponents of trip hop, Portishead, appearing at Harvest Festival. There she was bathed in the golden afternoon rays of sunlight, but now she’s obscured by stage lights in alternating hues. Her musicians are backlit and positioned either side of the stage in groups of three and the keyboardist is in the centre behind Gibbons.
